    The problem isn't that the nerfed the packs. The problem is they nerfed them and still haven't changed the odds 1:50 for a diamond is just a lie at this point.

    I don't buy this. There is way too much scrutiny on these types of games and microtransactions that a company posting incorrect odds would be opening themselves up to all kinds of legal trouble, if not in the US then in other countries.

    Exactly; here in Canada, especially Quebec, those laws are severe (plus its marketed towards kids) and why we can’t get into some contests, like those daily missions for gear. If it were fraudulent, we wouldn’t be able to buy stubs with real money.

    Hey, where is the, "you just don't understand odds guys?" They usually show up immediately to explain odds to us philistines and cretins.

    If people are dumb enough to actually buy packs, sure. I've personally opened [censored] near 400 packs earned from just playing the game and all ive pulled is 6 diamond players.

    Of course, they add they stupid [censored] like diamond icons, contracts, and uniforms that no one cares about to kinda tilt the odds a bit.

    Even just considering the 6 diamond players, that is not that far off the odds

    But why? Why spend all those stubs on those packs? Do you know how much you could get off the market?

    Because I’ve completed all the LS cards and have nothing left to do. Except sell my cards and keep buying packs 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I used to, but I realized how painful it was to feel like I wasted 75k on the times I didn't pull a diamond, and now whenever I'm tempted, I just remind myself of that feeling. I realized I only liked packs when I pulled something cool, and even then most of the times that cool pull still didn't equal to 75k.

    Yeah. My issue is now my team is really good but I still struggle with hitting 😂😂 so I’ll give myself a month or so of training before worrying about any new players!

    If I get that itch and can't ignore it, I'll go find something to do in the game that gets me some free packs, so showdown/affinity or something similar.

    I feel you man. I could have already completed the collections had i not kept buying packs. But then again most of my early game stubs were from multiple trout pulls. Nowadays tho forget it. Lucky to get yu darvish

    Kind of same here. Pulled Trout opening day, and then pulled him on back to back days. I probably have bought a total of around 20 - 25 50's, with my last three getting me Darvish, nothing, and nothing. I could see prices dropping, and without pulling any diamonds, I was only making back maybe 1/3. Stopped buying packs, saved my money, and have had Chipper for maybe a couple of weeks.

    Playing the pack game is a losing proposition, except for the first couple of weeks or so. Now I just save my stubs, and try to fill in cheaper pieces for the big collect down the road, or buy players that make my team better. It doesn't hurt that it's real easy to make (not through working the market) stubs in this game from various avenues.
